Work From Anywhere,
Thrive Everywhere

InkWell is a remote-first company. We don't just tolerate remote workβ€”we've built our culture, tools, and processes around it. Here's how we do it.

Our Philosophy

Built for Remote Excellence

Flexibility isn't a perk hereβ€”it's the foundation of how we operate.

🌍

Async-First Communication

We document everything and communicate asynchronously by default. Meetings are intentional, recorded, and optional unless critical.

⚑

Output Over Hours

We measure success by impact and results, not time spent online. Manage your own schedule and deliver exceptional work.

🀝

Trust & Autonomy

Every team member owns their workflow. We provide clear goals and resources, then get out of the way so you can do your best work.

Questions?

Remote Work FAQ

Everything you need to know before joining our distributed team.

Do I need to live in a specific country to apply?
No. We hire globally. As long as you're legally authorized to work in your country of residence (or we can sponsor you where applicable), you're welcome to apply. We handle tax compliance through our EOR partner.
How do you handle performance reviews remotely?
We use quarterly goal-setting (OKRs) paired with continuous feedback. Reviews focus on deliverables, collaboration quality, and growth. Everything is documented in Notion for transparency.
What happens if I have an internet outage?
Life happens. Notify your team lead via backup communication (SMS/call), and we'll adjust deadlines accordingly. We recommend having a mobile hotspot as backup, which can be covered by your stipend.
Are there strict working hours?
Not really. We have a 3-hour core overlap window (10 AM – 1 PM EST) for collaboration. Outside that, you set your own schedule. We trust you to manage your time and deliver results.
How do new hires onboard remotely?
You'll get a pre-configured laptop, access to all tools on day one, and a dedicated buddy. We run a structured 2-week async onboarding program with live Q&A sessions, documentation deep-dives, and team introductions.
